Oni Person
"So, Shiro. Are Mary and Anne beautiful?"
I asked Shiro the most important thing.
If they are beautiful women, I have to change my behavior to be more gentlemanly.
If they're ugly, I'll make sure I bust Mary for her cheeky mouth!
"The two are beautiful."
"Is that true!
So, how old are they?"
I ask Shiro, showing a bit of interest.
"They look like they are about 18 years old."
"Look? Does that mean they are a long-lived species like elves?"
"I wonder? They have some sort of horns, doesn’t it?
Cow people? Is it different?
Let me check it out with the appraisal eye.
Ah! I understand.
Mary and Anne seem to be of the Oni race!"
"What? Tree race?
It seems hard, doesn't it? Is their body made of wood like Pi*occhio?"
"It’s not tree, it’s an oni like kaminari-sama!"
(TN: Kaminari-sama also known as Raijin, raikou, and raiden. The thunder god.)
Gentle Shiro said.
My brain has restored and I've become smarter, so I'm now able to do things normally.
When I was a skeleton, I didn't understand even though I had no intention of not understanding it.
"I know"
"I know too. I can easily read what Master is thinking."
"Surely……"
Well, if you think about it, Shiro, who can read my mind, can pick up on all the nonsense I thought of.
If I'm a comedian, wouldn't that be my best partner?
I've heard of new comedians who have their best lines but didn't get through to their partners.
"I don't know everything, I know what I know."
Shiro puffed out her chest, probably because she was happy to hear the word [best partner].
There was a saying that you would say if you were a comedian.
It seems that even if she can read my mind, she will ignore that part.
"So, are the two oni strong?"
"They're strong! They're both Lv.83!"
I see, Shiro, who knows what I like, says that Mary and Anne are beautiful women, and if that's the case, I'd like to have them in my harem.
In that case, I don't really want to fight.
If there is a difference in level, I can force them into a corner, but if they are strong, it's a different story.
What to do…….
I don't want to fight with the Mary Anne Pirates.
I don't want a beautiful woman to hate me.
However, I have no intention of becoming an affiliate of the Mary Anne Pirates.
Ideally, I would like to form an alliance with them on equal terms.
I don't have a loudspeaker, so Shiro and I move to the Golden Queen for now.
"Mylene, does this ship have a loudspeaker?"
"There is."
"Then lend me one."
"Here is it. Ancestor-sama."
Mylene, who respected me needlessly, guided me to the front of the loudspeaker.
And I immediately called out to the Mary Anne Pirates.
"Ahh~ Hello, can you hear me?
I'm Cedric, the head of the Golden Skull Pirates!
We have no intention of becoming hostile to the Mary Anne Pirates or becoming affiliated with you.
Because I started to like Mary and Anne!
By all means, join my harem!"
"Master! What are you talking about?
You're saying exactly what you were thinking in your head!
That's not what Master was trying to say!"
Kuh! Not good.
I was trying to say, [Let's form an alliance], but out of habit, I ended up saying what I was really thinking.
I can't believe that in such an important place, the bad habits from the skeleton era would emerge...
"Ha! Liking us!
Don't make me laugh!
Don't casually say you like us even though you haven't seen our face!"
Mary was angry.
Or maybe she was angry from the beginning.
"P... please don't say so easily that you like me!
We will hold off on putting you under our umbrella!"
Anne also seemed angry.
"Wait! What I said earlier was a lie!
Let's talk first!"
"A... a lie! Are you kidding me!"
"It seems that the leader of the Golden Skull Pirates is a dishonest person."
It seems like something I said once again fueled Mary and Anne's anger.
Maybe it would be better to just look them in the face and apologize.
"Shiro, let's go!"
"Roger!"
I move to the Golden Skull and head towards the ship that seems to be the mother ship of the Mary Anne Pirates at full speed.
"Kuh! What the hell are they doing!"
"Looks like negotiations have broken down!"
Something is wrong with Mary and Anne.
We must speed up the Golden Skull to clear up Mary and Anne's misunderstanding!
"Captain! That's not good! Rumor has it that Hammer Skull sank pirate ships one after another!"
"Mary, we have no choice but to fight this."
"Sister! Let's kill them from the start!
All ships, fire cannonballs at the Golden Skull!"
I can hear what's going on inside Mary Anne's mothership through the loudspeaker.
For my part, I just want to have a discussion, so I can't afford to take the shells.
We can't have a discussion after the other side has attacked us.
Shiro, do something!
"Roger that!"
As Shiro said that, she released something one after another from her ten fingertips.
Something that was released turned into a net in front of the enemy fleet's cannon hole, blocking it.
"Hey! Isn't that going to cause an outburst?"
"It's okay! The net is designed to harden once it has expanded to a certain extent!"
While Shiro was explaining to me,
Boom*!
A cannon was fired from one of the other fleet's vessels.
The cannonball fired from the cannon is wrapped in the net released by Shiro.
Impact*!
It stopped with an impact sound.
Since the net remains attached to the gun barrel, the ship shakes violently due to the impact of the sudden stop of the shell.
"Don't shoot! The ship will sink!"
Mary immediately understood the situation and gave instructions to the fleet, but
Several ships were overturned after two or three shells were fired at the same time.
"Damn it! They've done it!"
Mary is furious.
It seems like everything I did with the best intentions backfired...
However, if we talk to each other, I'm sure something will work out.
"Ori Hime, increase the speed!"
"Kyui!"
We increase the speed of the Golden Skull.
And soon, in front of the mother ship of the Mary Anne Pirates,
A busty woman with red hair, brown skin, two horns, and a deliquent-style tiger-print sailor uniform was standing alone at the bow of the ship, holding the scabbard of a sword.
"Ori Hime, reverse it!"
"Kyui!"
Ori Hime reverses the D*son electric fan type magic tool and starts running in the opposite direction.
"Do you think I'll let you escape?"
Atop the bow of the ship, Mary's beast-like eyes flashed sharply as her body emitted an ominous red-black aura.
And,
"Kijin style swordsmanship. Special skill, Oni Iai Slash!"
Swish*ーーー!
A thunderous slash, unleashed by Mary, the leader of the Mary Anne Pirates, slices through the air and is aimed at me.
